Network Authentication
Network Authentication
: Disabled by default. If the local network
has an authentication server such as Radius server, the user can
enable this function by choosing either
802.1X
or
WPA
. This option
fulfills the security that an enterprise needs. If the local network
does not have an authentication server, it’s recommended to use
WPA-PSK
(Pre-Shared Key). This option is commonly used in
small office home office (SOHO) environments.
WPA Pre-Shared Key
: If WPA-PSK is the network authentication
option, enter a secret key. Check the table below for instructions
when entering the key.
